Exporting in REDCINE-X PRO

Because SpeedGrade turned out 5k footage into a 1920x1080 DPX, we lost the ability to work with some of the more difficult shots. SO - we took those shots into RedCine X Pro and played around with them. Our idea is to get the look we want in the places we were losing detail, export at the highest res possible, and then bring it back into Premiere and SpeedGrade.

With overlaps/masks/ect, we'll be able to blend the original shot and the new ones from RedCine to create, essentially, and HDR image.

Here's how to export using REDCINE-X PRO:

Now that we know what SpeedGrade is - how about some directions on the basics:




For more control with Color Grading - You can do power windows (also known as masks in SpeedGrade):



Also, when you've had everything corrected the way you want, it's time for Export! Here's a nice tutorial that goes over all of the basics when rendering from SpeedGrade:
